I'd love to post pictures! Stay tuned, I'm running out to the garage to take some of each of them.

Thanks for your help! They are 4 weeks and 1 day old. The private breeder I purchased them from will take them back, if cockerels and give me other babies (also from a straight run) if I want, which is nice, because we are not allowed to keep roosters. I hoped our luck would be a little better though!

Here they are....

"Zaxby" Cockerel? (so sad, my husband's favorite)





"Brownie 1" Pullet? (comb is clearly different than the others)





"Stripe" Cockerel? (comb is not as pink, but I am fairly certain he crows. I post video of supposed crowing at end for confirmation)




"Brownie 2" Cockerel? (not really pink comb, but much larger than Brownie 1)

Here is a video of "Stripe" attempting to crow, or at least what sounds like an attempt to crow to me. It is at the very end. Am I right?

@MedSchlFarmers Looks like Brownie 1 is your only pullet. The others have 3 rows on their combs and are pretty pink for 4 weeks.

x 2 Glad the breeder will take them back.

Are you asking sex or breed? She's a pullet. Very cute. Don't see much about her that is EE, except the fuzzy face. Not sure of breed.

Thanks in advance!

Looks more like a Sultan mix, than an Easter Egger.

Yea I think she/he may be a mix of ee. I was wanting to know whether it was a pullet or cockerel.
